One of my Canadian friends, who I train with, always calls me a redneck, because I lived in Texas for a long time. I ask him if he's ever heard of Austin, and he's like, "Huh, Austin?". I think he's the redneck. Anyway, I never met a Canadian until I moved to where I live now (which is weird since I was raised in New England), and they're all pretty cool, decent guys. There are a few Canadians at my gym. One of my friends always says, "yeah" at the end of each sentence and uses some other funny words that I find amusing.I lived in Canada for about 2 years. At first I wasn't sure what to think, my roomies kept calling me a yank...I'm from Kansas and at the time, being a farm-raised kid, I wanted to punch their faces in because where I'm from we don't call anyone other than their names unless we want a fight...anyway..long story short. Made great friends there...(I've since grown out of the small farm-town mentality thankfully after living in a few countries around the world since 2001, but it was pretty hilarious at the time.)...hit some canadian poon. Drank Alexander Keiths and Sleeman steam. Late night runs to the beer store...poutine...Timmy Horton's donuts and sandwiches were decent.
Canadians are good people for the most part IMO.
